Standard Liege vs Gent Best Bet
Belgium, First Division, Friday, July 22nd, 19:45 (UK Time)
The new season in the Belgian top flight kicks off this weekend. Things start with a tasty clash between Standard Liege and Gent. Liege were disappointing last season; finishing just four points above the relegation zone. Gent narrowly missed out on the Championship Round of the competition, so both teams will be looking for a fresh start in the new campaign.
Standard Liege have a woeful recent record against Friday’s opponents. They have recorded just three victories in the last 10 meetings between the sides. They have been beaten in the last four. Gent have also had the benefit of playing a competitive match in the build-up for this one. They were beaten 1-0 by Club Brugge, last year’s league winners, in the Super Cup.
Going back to last season, Standard Liege had just three wins in their final 10 matches of the season, whereas Gent picked up seven victories in their last 10 league matches. Scoring proved problematic for Stadard last season, they averaged less than a goal per game over their 34 matches.
All things considered, I can’t resist backing Gent to win here. They were solid when taking on Club Brugge in their last match, and I’m expecting them to start well. Bet365 have the visitors to win priced at 1.90.
- Selection: Gent To WIn
- Best Odds: 1.90 (bet365)
- Stake: 8/10

FC Salzburg vs Austria Vienna Best Bet
Austria, Bundesliga, Friday, July 22nd, 19:30 (UK Time)
The Austrian Bundesliga is another league that gets going this week, and the champions are taking on Austria Vienna on Friday night. Salzburg comfortably won the league last season; finishing 15 points clear of their closest rivals after the Championship Round.
Salzburg are unbeaten against Austria Vienna since 2018, and they’ve had 12 victories in 13 meetings since then. Therefore, I’m expecting Salzburg to dominate proceedings here, and the away side will have to conjure up some magic in order to end their recent woes against the giants of Austrian football.
Using the bet365 bet builder, we can get odds of 2.00 for Salzburg to win the game and to win over five corners in the match. In their last five matches where they have been priced similarly to win by the bookmakers, they are averaging over eight corners per game. Austria Vienna’s last five opponents in similar matches are averaging exactly eight corners, so the corner angle looks good here. As previously stated, Salzburg have a formidable record against Friday’s opponents, and they will be eager to start the season with a win here.
- Selection: Salzburg To Win & Over 5 Corners
- Best Odds: 2.00 (bet365)
- Stake: 8/10

Alianza Petrolera vs Bucaramanga Best Bet
Colombia, Primera A, Saturday, July 23rd, 00:00 (UK Time)
There is also action from Colombia on Friday night. Alianza Petrolera host Bucaramanga, and they go into this one as favourites despite the mixed recent record against this opponent. The season has just started, so it could prove difficult to pick an outright winner, but there is some definite value to be had.
Bucaramanga have had more corners than Allianza in the last four meetings between the sides, and they are averaging seven corners in the last five head-to-heads. Bucaramanga won very few corners in the matches towards the end of last season, but the recent meetings with Friday night’s opponent lead me to believe they should win a few here.
Bet365 have the visitors to win over 3.5 corners at 1.83, and I’m happy to back that here given the numbers.
- Selection: Bucaramanga Corners O 3.5
- Best Odds: 1.83 (Bet 365)
- Stake: 7/10

WHAT IS A FOOTBALL ACCA?
A football acca is an accumulator bet, a type of bet that consists of several selections across different matches that are combined together into one single bet. An acca usually. consists of at least four selections but many more can be included. There will be odds for the single bet as a whole which is calculated by multiplying the odds of all of the selections. A football acca is one of the most popular ways to bet. This is the case because they can create potentially massive odds for a small stake. Many punters choose to create football accas which is what we have created here. If one of these selections loses then the football acca will lose. This type of bet needs every selection to win in order to succeed.
